Stoke target eyes move

Stoke continue to be linked with a move for Moussa Konate, who is keen to move to England before the transfer window closes.

The 19-year-old forward impressed for Senegal during the Olympic games and that alerted Stoke and a host of other Premier League clubs to his obvious talent.

Konate currently plays his football in Israel with Maccabi Tel Aviv but he soon hopes to be playing in the Premier League and has instructed his agent to find him a club.

"My agent is Moustapha Kamara, he is in Marseille, and he has given a mandate to an agent in England to represent me," said Konate. "Any club that is interested can contact Mr Joseph Donkor in England.

"I want to play in England. I loved the Olympics and the atmosphere in the stadiums.

"It is a great league. No disrespect to the Israel league, but the Premier League is top quality."

As well as Stoke, Norwich, West Brom, Swansea and Fulham are also said to be keen so he should have no shortage of offers.
